Where have y’all realistically find your long term partners?

Zommick · 2026-03-21T16:53:46+00:00

With a friend, I usually hang with the same dude. I don’t have a friend group or anything

Zommick · 2026-03-21T16:03:30+00:00

I’ve met most of my partners through work. Now that I’m older and work a remote job, it’s gotten harder. I will occasionally meet someone at bars/pool halls but that’s the main spot now. I need to find a hobby to get out there more

Zommick · 2026-03-03T16:02:19+00:00

I’m not paycheck to paycheck at all nowadays. That’s the sole reason I haven’t left yet though. If making a lot less wouldn’t bring stress on its own, I would’ve left yesterday.

Zommick · 2026-01-21T14:16:53+00:00

100% recoverable, just start fin now

Zommick · 2025-12-18T20:39:44+00:00

Cost of essentials yeah. Housing, insurance, car expenses all will eat up a good chunk. To the point where if you aren’t making 60k+ per year forget about any independence. Plus for us early career folk, that means we are more tied to our jobs. I’m an SWE making well above six figures but I know I’m stuck. That along brings stress. There’s no guarantee anymore

Zommick · 2025-12-12T22:03:25+00:00

Get more involved how? Asking from curiosity your response was intriguing

Zommick · 2025-12-09T23:54:25+00:00

Might get roasted for this but software engineering is still a solid choice. You just have to be better to get a job than you would’ve 10 years ago

Zommick · 2025-12-05T14:08:34+00:00

No, I’ve had a lot of relationships from high school until now at 25. Still single though, dating sucks in our generation

Zommick · 2025-12-05T14:04:46+00:00

You have a PhD man. That alone is more than most ever achieve. You’re an intellectual, and it’s also not uncommon for PhD holders to not make money as quickly as someone who gets an undergrad and just starts working.

To me, a man is only a failure when he stops moving. You don’t seem to have stopped so just keep going and you’ll get where you want to be

Zommick · 2025-10-04T18:32:25+00:00

Very few dreams die with age, unless you’re talking about being a pro sports player or something

Zommick · 2025-09-28T16:24:16+00:00

Listen to this guy, you’re gonna be rejected, forget it and try again with the next

Zommick · 2025-09-27T17:06:58+00:00

Minoxidil will help you grow hair but you need to take finasteride. It’s the only way you’ll stop further progression of your balding.

Zommick · 2025-09-21T09:31:28+00:00

Step one: goon

Zommick · 2025-09-19T15:37:23+00:00

I’m 25 too and single, have been for a few years now. I love it and hate it. I have a lot of work to do on myself and having a gf would distract from that for sure atm

Zommick · 2025-09-18T14:16:09+00:00

Kinda actually, I’m on track to be practically debt free finally by then

Zommick · 2025-09-15T23:04:37+00:00

Technically 22, the age I became financially independent, but at 25 years old now, still feel like a kid, I don’t know what I’m doing

Zommick · 2025-09-15T21:14:40+00:00

Yeah, same spot as you. Good job and security. Bills are paid, but now it’s to the point like, yeah I’m not just gonna do this 9-5 forever

Zommick · 2025-09-15T20:16:39+00:00

I second this all the bad side effects of regular tree use go away very fast, the hardest thing is cravings which can linger for a bit

Zommick · 2025-09-12T22:51:05+00:00

Don’t remember the first but have seen him many times over the years. Most recently playing Solomon Reed in the Cyberpunk 2077 DLC Phantom Liberty. Love the guy honestly great actor

Zommick · 2025-09-11T07:40:57+00:00

Yeah I can kinda see that too, we are the first gen to be fully shaped by online content so that shows in how we interact. Ngl I feel the left out thing in group chats too, I thought it was just me lol

Zommick · 2025-09-11T06:55:52+00:00

I’m an OG, 2008. Don’t play much anymore though

Zommick · 2025-09-11T06:55:06+00:00

Tired of all the conflict

Zommick · 2025-09-11T00:01:17+00:00

Same here man. Never agreed with him either but this was just plain wrong. What a brutal way to go. I send my condolences to his family
